F10 M5 Vibration

13M5F10 · 06-22-2015, 06:55 PM

I recently picked up a used low mileage F10 M5. Immediately while braking around 40 mph or from higher speeds I noticed vibration. Took it to dealer and it was diagnosed to be warped rotors. When I picked up, it felt as the issue was corrected with the new rotors and brakes.

Lately, I have started feeling vibration again while braking but not as excessive. Only 1k miles on the brakes and rotors, is it possible that they are warped again???? I don't drive it hard.

Also, anyone else notice vibration/shudder in the steering wheel in low speed turns. Mostly felt when pulling in/out of lot.

Might be an issue or not but maybe it's related to a suspension issue.

I had the same issue but mine was resolved by balancing my front wheels/tires. One of the fronts weren't balanced correctly.

Ill have them check it out. I had them balanced prior to the first rotor/brake change but ill have them look at it again just in case.

One of the wheels might be slightly buckled but within spec.

Are you running stock springs? Do you know if previous owner had the 'clunk' issue fixed? Early 13's had a problem with shorter springs in the rear that caused a thump on bumps. I had this fixed per SIB and immediately noticed all my road vibration was also gone. Others have reported vibration is resolved with new springs. Not sure if your issue is related, but I would recommend getting this done nevertheless if you haven't already.

Once you get the RF wheel repaired Im sure the issues will be sorted.

Do you have the SIB. I have noticed the clunk in the rear when going over bumps.

Thanks

Is SIB pads from dealer like a special request? Or

just go to the dealership and balance your wheels.. the problem then should be solved. i used to have the same problem back on my pervious car.

Bent wheel must have been the issue because once I repaired my wheels and had them powder coated gloss black, the vibrating went away. I still have something and I have it scheduled for a road force balance next week.
